I review albums.
An awful lot of them.
Lest you think I am only trying to break Steve Lamacq's record for gigs attended in a year (check out my list of gigs I've been to or the interviews I've done), I also like to review albums. Have a gander at all the reviews I've done for Clickmusic, PopWreckoning, This is Fake DIY, and There Goes the Fear below.
